From the Margarita's Restaurant:

"Our Margaritas restaurant in Keene, New Hampshire is perhaps the most historically significant out of all the Margaritas locations. That’s because our Keene, NH Margs is located on Main Street in what once was the home of Henry David Thoreau’s mother, Cynthia Dunbar. While Margaritas has inhabited the building since 1999, it has a rich history dating all the way back to 1785 when it was built by Asa Dunbar. Asa, formerly a minister from Salem Mass., became a lawyer in Keene the same year the house was built. He died in 1787 at age 41. His wife Mary supported her five small children by opening the house as a tavern. Her youngest child, Cynthia, born in this house, would later become the mother of Henry David Thoreau.

The house was at times a boarding house, a lunch business frequented by Rudyard Kipling, the Crystal Restaurant, and for many years was a restaurant called Henry David’s. Today, of course, it is Margaritas. It is rumored that Cynthia Dunbar’s ghost still haunts the building, most often found in the older areas of the restaurant where the original kitchen would have been". https://www.margs.com/locations/margaritas-keene-nh/
